<h1>Aadhaar Act, 2016: Consent Required for Identity Info Collection; Alternatives Needed for Authentication Failures</h1> The Aadhaar Act, 2016, mandates the authentication of Aadhaar numbers by the Authority using biometric or demographic information, subject to conditions and fees specified by regulations. Requesting entities must obtain consent from individuals or their guardians for children before collecting identity information for authentication. They must also ensure this information is used solely for submission to the Central Identities Data Repository. In cases of authentication failure due to various reasons, entities must provide alternative identification methods. Entities must inform individuals about the nature of shared information, its uses, and alternatives to submitting identity information. The Authority's response to authentication queries will exclude core biometric data.
